The RRU5513t (1800 MHz+2100 MHz+2600 MHz) provides the passive intermodulation (PIM) cancellation
function.

Passive intermodulation (PIM) refers to the intermodulation effect caused by nonlinearities in the passive
components of an antenna system when high-power signals of multiple frequencies are transmitted. This
intermodulation effect decreases the uplink sensitivity and negatively affects the network quality.
The maximum gain of PIM cancellation can reach 15 dB. This function reduces the negative impact of the
intermodulation effect on the system. The following factors impact PIM cancellation performance:

Antennas: For example, the antenna experiences water corrosion, the antenna is aged, or the screws
inside the antenna are loose.
Connectors: For example, the jumper connector is not securely connected, and the jumper port is
corroded by water or aged.
External PIM issues: For example, metal obstacles (steel rope of the guyed mast, metal fence, lightning
protection ground bar, or billboard) exist near the radiation surface of the antenna.
Other factors that may cause PIM

An RRU must be used in a simple antenna networking scenario where the RRU uses a fixed-length jumper
(≤ 6 m or 19.68 ft) to directly connect to the antenna. In this scenario, there is no intermediate component
such as a combiner between the RRU and the antenna. The fixed-length jumper is used because it can
effectively mitigate the PIM effect.

a: mTnR in the TX/RX Mode column indicates that the RF module uses m transmit channels and n receive channels.
b: The number of carriers in the Capacity column refers to the maximum number of carriers that can be configured
for the module with the RAT configured, not the number of carriers that can be configured for a single channel. For
details about the module-level and channel-level carrier configurations supported in single-mode and multimode
scenarios, see the Output Power Configuration column in the following table. When the module is used with a
feature, see the feature specifications in the corresponding feature parameter description to learn the module-level
or channel-level carrier configurations that are supported after the feature is enabled.
c: The bandwidth information in Supported Bandwidth is the standard bandwidth that can be configured for a
carrier when only one carrier is configured for the module working in a single mode. In any carrier combination
scenario, the difference between the absolute value of the highest frequency and the absolute value of the lowest
frequency of the involved carriers operating on the same band cannot exceed the instantaneous bandwidth (IBW).
For details about the bandwidth that can be configured for each carrier in each carrier combination scenario, see
Output Power Configuration in the following table. For details about the non-standard bandwidths that can be
configured for LTE FDD carriers, see Compact Bandwidth (FDD).

127.0.0.1:51299/icslite/hdx.do?docid=HDXGE1116AA_02_en#topicid=EN-US_BOOKMAP_0313028049&hash=EN-US_TOPIC_0313028542 6/30

and the maximum output power of each channel is P W.
b: The Typical Power Configurations document describes the configurable carrier combinations and the output
power per carrier in each combination. The Output Power per Carrier is the maximum output power per carrier
supported by the configuration to ensure network performance. The actually configured carrier power of RF
modules can be less than or equal to the value of Output Power per Carrier in the document. Before referring to
this document, you must be familiar with the output power configuration rules. For details, see 5 RF Output Power
Configuration Rules.

The RRU5513t (1400 MHz+1800 MHz+2100 MHz) provides the passive intermodulation (PIM) cancellation
function.
Contents

Passive intermodulation (PIM) refers to the intermodulation effect caused by nonlinearities in the passive
components of an antenna system when high-power signals of multiple frequencies are transmitted. This
intermodulation effect decreases the uplink sensitivity and negatively affects the network quality.
The maximum gain of PIM cancellation can reach 15 dB. This function reduces the negative impact of the
intermodulation effect on the system. The following factors impact PIM cancellation performance:

Antennas: For example, the antenna experiences water corrosion, the antenna is aged, or the screws
inside the antenna are loose.
Connectors: For example, the jumper connector is not securely connected, and the jumper port is
corroded by water or aged.
External PIM issues: For example, metal obstacles (steel rope of the guyed mast, metal fence, lightning
protection ground bar, or billboard) exist near the radiation surface of the antenna.
Other factors that may cause PIM

An RRU must be used in a simple antenna networking scenario where the RRU uses a fixed-length jumper
(≤ 6 m or 19.68 ft) to directly connect to the antenna. In this scenario, there is no intermediate component
such as a combiner between the RRU and the antenna. The fixed-length jumper is used because it can
effectively mitigate the PIM effect.

a: mTnR in the TX/RX Mode column indicates that the RF module uses m transmit channels and n receive channels.
Contents
b: The number of carriers in the Capacity column refers to the maximum number of carriers that can be configured
for the module with the RAT configured, not the number of carriers that can be configured for a single channel. For
details about the module-level and channel-level carrier configurations supported in single-mode and multimode
scenarios, see the Output Power Configuration column in the following table. When the module is used with a
feature, see the feature specifications in the corresponding feature parameter description to learn the module-level
or channel-level carrier configurations that are supported after the feature is enabled.
c: The bandwidth information in Supported Bandwidth is the standard bandwidth that can be configured for a
carrier when only one carrier is configured for the module working in a single mode. In any carrier combination
scenario, the difference between the absolute value of the highest frequency and the absolute value of the lowest
frequency of the involved carriers operating on the same band cannot exceed the instantaneous bandwidth (IBW).
For details about the bandwidth that can be configured for each carrier in each carrier combination scenario, see
Output Power Configuration in the following table. For details about the non-standard bandwidths that can be
configured for LTE FDD carriers, see Compact Bandwidth (FDD).

The NB-IoT multi-carrier function is an NB-IoT multi-carrier transmission technology introduced based on
3GPP Release 13. A cell can have multiple carriers and assigns UEs to multiple carriers to increase cell capacity.
For details about this function and related parameter settings, see NB-IoT Enhancements (FDD) in the eRAN

5 RF Output Power Configuration Rules

When an RF module is configured to work on different RATs, the RF output power configuration rules for the
corresponding RATs must be adhered to.

127.0.0.1:51299/icslite/hdx.do?docid=HDXGE1116AA_02_en#topicid=EN-US_BOOKMAP_0313028049&hash=EN-US_TOPIC_0313028542 25/30
21.02.2024 13:25 RRU5513t Technical Specifications

General Rules

The total output power of all carriers on a single channel cannot exceed the maximum output power of a single
channel.

It is recommended that a module be located at an altitude less than or equal to 4000 m (13123.36 ft). The output
power is 1 dB less than the standard power when a module is located at an altitude of 3500 m (11482.80 ft) to
4500 m (14763.60 ft) and is 2 dB less than the standard power when a module is located at an altitude of 4500 m
(14763.60 ft) to 6000 m (19684.80 ft).

Assume that an RF module works in multiple frequency bands and a single channel is configured with multiple
cells in different frequency bands. To ensure cell performance, avoid the following configuration: The carrier
output power is less than the minimum configurable output power for all of the cells that work in the same
frequency band. Such configuration cannot ensure the performance of the cells in this frequency band, and
significantly affects the performance of the cells that share this channel and work in other frequency bands.
The minimum configurable output power of a cell varies depending on the RAT. For details, see the output
power configuration rules of each RAT.

For example, a single channel of an RF module is configured with one NR cell in the 1800 MHz frequency band
and one LTE cell in the 2100 MHz frequency band. The carrier output power of the NR cell in the 1800 MHz
frequency band is 1 mW, which is less than the minimum configurable output power per channel for the NR
cell of the module. In this case, the performance of the NR cell cannot be ensured. In addition, the Contents
performance of the LTE cell in the 2100 MHz frequency band on the same channel deteriorates significantly
even if its output power meets the requirements.

GSM Output Power Configuration Rules

The standard bandwidth per GSM carrier is 200 kHz.

If the output power per GSM carrier on a single channel is required to be 60 W, the corresponding power license
item must be purchased.

Before using the GSM power sharing function, ensure that the license item "LGMIDPS-Dynamic Power Sharing
(per TRX)" has been purchased. To enable the power sharing function, run the SET GCELLCHMGAD command
with QTRUPWRSHARE set to DYNAMIC and MultiGSMDynPWShareSW set to ON.

For the GBTS and eGBTS, the output power per carrier of the same RF module is the same. However, the unit of
the output power per carrier is W for the GBTS and dBm for the eGBTS. Power P (unit: W) can be converted to x

(unit: dBm) by using the following formula: . For example, when an RF module
works in GSM mode, the output power per carrier that can be configured for the GBTS is 60 W (GMSK). Then, the
output power per carrier that can be configured for the eGBTS is

, which is rounded off to 47.8 dBm (GMSK).

To ensure the performance of a GSM cell and other cells that share the same channel as the cell, the minimum
configurable carrier output power per channel for the GSM cell is equal to the total rated power per PA for an RF
module (unit: W) divided by 100. For example, the maximum output power of an RF module is 2x80 W. When you
configure a GSM cell, the minimum configurable carrier output power per channel for the GSM cell is 0.8 W (80
W/100).

The following table lists the available power configurations for each GSM carrier.
Table 5-1 Available power configurations for each GSM carrier

UMTS Output Power Configuration Rules

The standard bandwidth per UMTS carrier is 5 MHz.

The maximum output power of a UMTS cell is 100 W. To ensure the performance of the UMTS cell and other cells
that share the same channel as the cell, the minimum configurable carrier output power per channel for the UMTS
cell is equal to the total rated power per PA for an RF module (unit: W) divided by 100. For example, the maximum
output power of an RF module is 2x80 W. When you configure a UMTS cell, the minimum configurable carrier
output power per channel for the UMTS cell is 0.8 W (80 W/100).

LTE FDD Output Power Configuration Rules

Contents

When multiple LTE FDD carriers are configured, it is recommended that the power spectral density (PSD) of each
carrier be set to the same value.

PSD = Carrier output power/Carrier bandwidth

1.4 MHz and 3 MHz bandwidths are considered as 5 MHz bandwidth in the formula.

LTE NB-IoT Output Power Configuration Rules

The formulas for calculating the minimum NB-IoT power per PA for an RF module are as follows:

Minimum NB-IoT power per PA for an RF module when NB-IoT cells work in guardband or in-band mode =
min(23 dBm, maximum output power per PA for an RF module – 40 dB)

Minimum NB-IoT power per PA for an RF module when NB-IoT cells work in standalone mode = min(23 dBm,
maximum output power per PA for an RF module – 20 dB)

In standalone mode, the bandwidth spacing between two NB-IoT carriers must be less than or equal to 300 kHz.

When the LTE bandwidth is 5 MHz, LTE NB-IoT cells cannot be deployed in guardband mode.

After the NB-IoT multi-carrier function is enabled, one NB-IoT multi-carrier cell can be configured with multiple
NB-IoT carriers.

When an NB-IoT multi-carrier cell is configured in standalone mode, a maximum of four NB-IoT carriers can
be configured.

127.0.0.1:51299/icslite/hdx.do?docid=HDXGE1116AA_02_en#topicid=EN-US_BOOKMAP_0313028049&hash=EN-US_TOPIC_0313028542 28/30
21.02.2024 13:25 RRU5513t Technical Specifications

When an NB-IoT multi-carrier cell is configured in in-band mode and the LTE bandwidth is 5 MHz, a maximum
of four NB-IoT carriers can be configured. If the LTE bandwidth is 10/15/20 MHz, a maximum of eight NB-IoT
carriers can be configured for an NB-IoT multi-carrier cell.

When a cell is configured with multiple NB-IoT carriers, the cell can have only one anchor carrier but can have
multiple non-anchor carriers.

The NB-IoT multi-carrier function is an NB-IoT multi-carrier transmission technology introduced based
on 3GPP Release 13. A cell can have multiple carriers and assigns UEs to multiple carriers to increase
cell capacity. For details about this function and related parameter settings, see NB-IoT Enhancements
(FDD) in the eRAN FDD Feature Documentation.

NR Output Power Configuration Rules

When multiple NR carriers are configured, it is recommended that the power spectral density (PSD) of each carrier
be set to the same value. The following formula applies: PSD = Carrier output power/Carrier bandwidth.

To ensure the performance of an NR cell and other cells that share the same channel as the cell, the minimum
configurable carrier output power per channel for the NR cell is equal to the total rated power per PA for an RF
module (unit: W) divided by 16. For example, the maximum output power of an RF module is 2x80 W. When you
configure an NR cell, the minimum configurable carrier output power per channel for the NR cell is 5 W (80
Contents
W/16).

For a single 4T cell, it is recommended that the carriers configured on the four channels have the same power.
Unbalanced power configurations are also supported. For details about unbalanced power configurations, see Cell
Management in 5G RAN Feature Documentation.

Multimode Output Power Configuration Rules

GUL/GUN (FDD)/GULN (FDD) carriers cannot be configured on the same channel simultaneously in a single
frequency band.

The output power per carrier must be balanced among multiple channels if possible.

To ensure the performance of a cell and other cells that share the same channel as the cell, the minimum total
configurable output power of all carriers per channel is equal to the total rated power per PA for an RF module
(unit: W) divided by 16. For example, if the maximum output power of an RF module is 2x80 W, the minimum total
output power of all carriers per each channel is 5 W (80 W/16).

Non-MSR and MSR

Non-MSR: Carriers of different RATs cannot be configured on the same RF channel. For example, a 2T RF
module supports GU. If GSM carriers are configured on PA1, then UMTS carriers cannot be configured on PA1.
That is, UMTS carriers can be configured only on PA2, and GSM carriers cannot be configured on PA2.

MSR: Carriers of different RATs can be configured on the same RF channel. For example, a 2T RF module
supports GU. Both GSM carriers and UMTS carriers can be configured on PA1 or PA2 simultaneously.

When LTE and NR carrier are configured, it is recommended that the power spectral density (PSD) of each carrier
be set to the same value. PSD = Carrier output power/Carrier bandwidth (1.4 MHz and 3 MHz bandwidths are
considered as 5 MHz bandwidth in this formula.)

127.0.0.1:51299/icslite/hdx.do?docid=HDXGE1116AA_02_en#topicid=EN-US_BOOKMAP_0313028049&hash=EN-US_TOPIC_0313028542 29/30
21.02.2024 13:25 RRU5513t Technical Specifications

The GU frequency spacing can be calculated using the following formula: GU frequency spacing ≥ [(GSM
bandwidth/2) + (UMTS bandwidth/2)].
